According to a recent report from Tehran to the Human Rights and Democracy Activists in Iran the status of Mr. Kazemeini Boroujerdi, the
prisoner of conscience who advocates the separation of religion from state and
the establishment of peace and justice, has deteriorated. Mr. Kazemeini
Boroujerdi has been refused all medicine and medical care by the Special
Cleric's Court in Tehran that his family requested.

According to this report in recent days the physical and mental
health condition of Mr. Kazemeini Boroujerdi, the prisoner of conscience and
opposed to religious supreme leadership, has been worsening because of the
unsuitable conditions of the prison and the intensifying psychological pressures.

The abduction of his brother's corpse, Sayyed Hassan, and
the prevention of his burial in the family cemetery, as well as increased
threats and the control of his family by
security and intelligence forces, adds to the deterioration of Mr. Boroujerdi’s
physical condition. This with the denial of medical care has caused him to be
in serious risk of heart attack.

Mrs. Akram Validust had contacted the special court for
the Clergy. She hadprotested the prevention of hospitalization, andasked them at least to deliver his medicine.But Evin Prison authorities had refused all
medicine and medical care for Mr. Kazemeini Boroujerdi, and also threatened her
for following up on her husband's status.

Despite repeated requests and the follow-up of families
and human rights communities, Mr. Boroujerdi has been deprived of having access
to any medical treatment, an independent lawyer, and so far has not been
permitted any medical leave even for an hour.

Mr. Boroujerdi,
who is spending the seventh year of his 11-years’ conviction in Even Prison
solely for his pacifist beliefs, is suffering from various diseases as a result
of the persecution and the inhumane conditions
of the prison.Despite repeated requests and continuous
follow-up of his family and international human rights organizations, he is
deprived of having any medical attention
or an attorney at law. So far, his request for a medical leave, even for one
hour, has been rejected.

Human
Rights Activists for Democracy In Iran condemns the
attempt on the dissident cleric Mr. Kazemeini Boroujerdi’s life. This attempt was
made against him by the agents of the Religious Supreme Leader, Ali Khamenei. The
High Commissioner for Human Rights and other international authorities have
requested that a crimes against humanity case naming Ali Khamenei be sent to the
UN Security Council in order to make the necessary enforced decisions.
